The iconic Grashoppa Floor Lamp was first produced in 1947 by the feminine pioneer Greta M. Grossman.
The unique tripod stand of the Grashoppa Floor Lamp is tilted backward and gives the impression that the lamp is somehow alive and stalking its prey. Being one of Grossman’s most iconic designs, the authentic lamp has an elongated conical shade that rotates to direct light where needed.
